Altus Intermediate School held the first ever Crab-Walk Soccer Tournament on Thursday. Students and teachers participated in the event held in the afternoon before Fall Break.

Physical Education teachers Jerry Hamersley and Jeremy Attebury planned the event with the help of Altus Intermediate School Assistant Principal, Lori Redden. They wanted to give the students a chance to celebrate their hard work over the first semester, while also encouraging physical activity.

The day was deemed a success and is likely to take place again.
